"We will not force occupants to vacate the unit as directed by the leader, moreover evicting takes time and can only be done through a long procedures. Thus administrative sanction is imposed without forcibly evicting the occupants, especially those affected by COVID-19," she explained.

Based on Pergub No. 111/2014 concerning the Rusunawa's Housing Mechanism, occupants who don't pay the rent rate for the three consecutive months will be given administrative sanctions.

If the occupants in rent arrears since January or previous month, she continued, then the sanctioned imposed is only limited to administrative sanctions.

"Once again, we will not forcibly evict the occupants who failed to pay the rent during the COVID-19 pandemic. We understand their difficulties, but we also hope other occupants who are able to pay the rent for paying on time," she closed.
